The Prince and Princess of Wales are very hands-on parents to their three children, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, but nanny Maria Teresa Turrion Bolaro also plays a fundamental role in raising them, the Mirror reports. Bolaro joined the family in 2014 when George was an infant, and none of the three children can recall life without her or her influence, commentators say.

And while William and Kate are trying to give the three of them as normal an education as possible, royal writer Tom Quinn says that "the enormous pressure of royal tradition cannot be ignored." According to royal commentator Pauline McLellan, Bolaro will help George, Charlotte, and Louis grow up to be balanced and well-rounded as they grow up. William himself (and his brother, Prince Harry) grew up with their adored nanny, Tiggy Legg-Burke.

"I think royal nannies play an important role in the lives of royal children," McLaren tells the Daily Express.

"Aside from looking after their daily routines and ensuring their safety, they can provide a lot of support for the children in developing their cognitive and social skills."

Since Bolaro is from Spain, George learned the "basics" of Spanish, including how to count to ten, and Charlotte is familiar with the language.

"The important thing is that they can provide that all-important emotional support so that the children can maintain a strong bond as adults," says McLaren.

George, in particular, as heir to the throne, is now being shaped by his parents and Bolaro in how his future reign will unfold, says Dr. Ramya Mohan, senior consultant developmental psychiatrist for children and adolescents at Harley Street. Says Dr. Mohan, "From the attention paid to him at the coronation, he will be in the public eye for the rest of his life in a role that has historical significance, expectations, and gravitas." The need to adapt to all aspects of his life, alongside the pressure of being in the public eye in a more obvious and scrutinized way, may feel like a tough tightrope walk for him alone, despite the considerable, planned support and guidance available that he can expect."[13
